EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and iconic poster announces the International Exposition of Barcelona, held in 1929. The exposition, also known as the "Exposición Internacional de Barcelona" or "Barcelona International Exhibition," was a significant cultural and commercial event that showcased the latest advancements in industry, technology, and art from around the world. The poster, designed by the renowned Mexican artist Miguel Robida y Primo, features a stylized dove of peace holding a palm branch and releasing commerce-themed ribbons above a vertical cityscape. The cityscape depicts various shops and commercial establishments, symbolizing the economic prosperity and growth anticipated during the exposition. The poster's colorful design and dynamic composition effectively convey the excitement and energy surrounding the event. However, it is essential to note that the context of the time was complex. The exposition took place during the dictatorship of Primo de Rivera, a controversial figure who came to power through a military coup in 1923. The dictatorship aimed to modernize Spain and promote economic development, but it also suppressed political opposition and civil liberties. The International Exposition of Barcelona was one of the dictatorship's most significant achievements, but it also served as a propaganda tool to showcase the regime's progress and legitimacy. Despite the political context, the poster remains an enduring symbol of the exposition's spirit of international cooperation and commercial innovation. Its bold design and powerful imagery continue to captivate audiences and serve as a reminder of the historical significance of this important event in Barcelona's history.
